Next, Parker flipped through the notebook that had been prepared, opened a folder on the desktop, clicked on the high-definition digital photos inside one by one, and introduced: "The six oil tankers, all of which are produced by the Brooke shipyard in Panama, are all Suezmax oil tankers, of which two 60,000-ton were shipped out of the shipyard last year, 100,000 tons were just out of the shipyard, and the other three 50,000-ton were launched for less than five years."

On the gray deck, a red crude oil pipeline extends from the head to the four-story cockpit at the end, which is indeed a Suezmax tanker.

Parker clicked on them one by one and introduced, there are about 20 exterior photos, the smallest one is more than 100 meters, and the 100,000-ton oil tanker has reached more than 250 meters, which is really a giant. As for the other photos, the internal structure of the tanker, with six detailed tanker parameters.

To be honest, Shi Zhong didn't know how to distinguish oil tankers at all, and after looking at them for a long time, he felt that the appearance of these ships was quite new, and all aspects of the data, according to Andrew's meaning, were not bad, and he was quite satisfied, but it was not obvious on the face.

Parker's offer is $20 million for each 50,000-ton tanker, $30 million for each 60,000-ton tanker, and $50 million for each 100,000-ton tanker.

Shi Zhong frowned and said with an unhappy face: "Mr. Parker, since you are not sincere in doing business with me. Why did you want me to fly here from China? ”

"Mr. Shi, under God's witness, my sincerity is as high as the sky!" Parker Road.

"Since you are sincere, then I would like to ask, except for the 100,000-ton class, your six oil tankers are all second-hand, right? Since it is second-hand, the price is so high, isn't it insincere? Shi Zhongdao. I was a little annoyed in my heart, Ya, the 50,000-ton level that has been in the sea for four or five years dares to quote 20 million US dollars, Ya. I add 10 million to buy a brand new one.

Parker's face turned red, but he still said: "Mr. Shi, you may not know our family's business philosophy, our business philosophy is that our maintenance of machinery and equipment is the best in the world, and the annual maintenance funds are very expensive."

Shi Zhong interrupted: "I admire your family's business philosophy, but obviously, now is not the time to discuss this, I just want to ask." Are you really sure that the transfer price of the 50,000-ton tanker that you have been at sea for four years is $20 million? Shi Zhong's eyes shot directly at Parker, making Parker dodge.

Andrew was also slightly upset and said, "Parker." We've been friends for five years, and your offer is really embarrassing! ”

Parker's face was slightly red, a little embarrassed, and said, "What does Mr. Yishi mean, how are you going to bid?" ”

"$10 million for 50,000 tons, $15 million for 60,000 tons, $45 million for 100,000 tons, this is my offer!" Shi Zhong thought for a moment and said a string of numbers.

"This can't be? Mr. Shi. You're kidding! Parker almost stood up, looking at Shi Zhong's expression as if he was looking at a madman, Andrew also opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't speak, but he felt that Shi Zhong was really good at bargaining, and cut off 65 million US dollars at once, although they were second-hand. But there's no need to be so ruthless. You must know that Shi Zhong wants to buy six new oil tankers, which will cost at least more than 200 million US dollars.

"However, now that the world's oil transportation industry is sluggish, your family wants to get liquidity as soon as possible. It's just me, and I pay it in a lump sum, and besides, the price I offer is not low, after all, who knows if your tankers will have such and such problems! Shi Zhong shrugged.

"No, no, no, it is impossible to buy six oil tankers for 105 million dollars, and if I agree to your offer, my family will suffer huge losses, and I will be condemned by my family for this!" Parker quickly shook his head.

"So, Mr. Parker, shall we go and take a tour of your fleet? As you can see, I came with great sincerity, and it's normal for the two sides to have conflicting offers, and we can discuss it slowly, isn't it? Shi Zhong said with a smile.

At this time, Parker also put away his excitement and apologized to Shi Zhong gentlemanly: "I'm sorry Mr. Shi, please forgive me for my rudeness just now!" ”

Soon, the two sides became friendly again, and Shi Zhong followed Parker to visit the tanker in the port of Venice. Andrew did not go with him because he had some business to attend to in Venice, but Parker invited him to dinner.

When he came to the harbor, Shi Zhong saw the oil tanker for the first time, walking on the deck, looking at the red oil pipeline, listening to Parker's introduction, Shi Zhong nodded from time to time, and then asked a few words, and Parker answered wholeheartedly.

After almost finishing the visit, Shi Zhong suddenly said, "Mr. Parker, I don't know if you know anyone from the Ancher family?" ”

Parker was stunned for a moment, and then said: "The Archer family is one of the five major families in Rome, but obviously, the strength of our family is not enough to get to know them, I know them, they don't know me!" Parker made a small joke, but the envy hidden in his eyes could not escape Shi Zhong's insight.

Shi Zhong smiled and said, "Maybe I can introduce you!" ”

"Oh? Does Mr. Shi have a relationship with some high-ranking member of the Ancher family? Parker asked, but he didn't believe it very much, the big families in Rome were the most xenophobic, and it was okay to do business with them, but business was business, they would never have anything to do with you, they claimed to be real nobles. However, thinking that the young Chinese man in front of him even knows a British nobleman like Andrew, maybe he really knows the Anchel family.

"Hehe, I think we should go back, don't let the Marquis of St. Delu go hungry!" Shi Zhong smiled, changed the topic, and did not give Parker a positive answer, what he just said was just a whim, and he did not intend to let Parker see how much discount he gave himself in front of the Ancher family.

For dinner, of course, the food was typical of European aristocratic food, and the whole empty dining room was filled with the three of Shi Zhong Parker and Andrew sitting at the long table, with many rules, and only the sound of chewing food could be heard during the meal.

finally solved the food, but Shi Zhong breathed a sigh of relief, he was so depressed after eating a meal, the Western nobles really hurt.

Agreed to continue the negotiation the next day, Shi Zhong and Andrew left together.

In the car, Andrew handed Shi Zhong a bank card and said, "Eighty million US dollars, a lot!" ”

Shi Zhong was not polite, took it, and said with a smile: "Andrew, how many days will you stay in Venice?" ”

Andrew smiled bitterly: "I was born to be a toiler, this trip to Venice is to deal with a few retail properties here in addition to introducing you to Parker, tomorrow I have to fly back to London, there are a lot of things waiting for me to deal with, here can only rely on yourself!" ”

The car stopped at the door of the hotel, Andrew did not get out of the car, and said to Shi Zhong: "Shi, don't you need me to take you to see the style of Venice?" ”

"Obviously, what you said was a little insincere, I heard it when you called just now, and there is a dissatisfied beautiful lady waiting for your reward!" Shi Zhong said with a slightly teasing tone.

Andrew didn't feel the slightest embarrassment: "Haha, then I'll go first, if there's anything you can call me!" With that, the black Mercedes disappeared into the traffic.

Shi Zhong greeted the copper armor and walked to the door of the hotel, suddenly there was a noisy sound in the hotel lobby, and, it seemed to be mixed with national scolding, uh, Chinese?

Shi Zhong walked in, but he was a little stunned when he saw the source of the voice, how could they come to Italy?

At this time, I saw a big man say loudly: "Why? We've already booked a room, why should we transfer it to someone else? How does your hotel work? Also the International Hotel, I'm bah! As he spoke, he spat heavily on the floor, but apparently, no one in the hotel could understand the Mandarin with the Sichuan dialect.

This person is Tuoba who has a relationship with Shi Zhong, with a fierce face, holding a long sword in his hand, the quaint scabbard, and it is his heavy sword weighing one hundred and twenty-eight pounds.

And next to him, there were three other old acquaintances of Shi Zhong, Yi Chen, who had an indifferent face, Yang Tian, who was communicating with the hotel, and Renault, who was slightly angry.

"Why transfer the room we booked to someone else? Is this what you call an international hotel? Yang Tian questioned the hotel manager in front of him, and the manager also smiled and lowered his posture: "I'm really sorry, in this way, how about this hotel is willing to contact other hotels with a grade not lower than ours for a few people?" It's really something happened to our hotel temporarily, I hope a few people understand! ”

Yang Tian thought for a while and said, "It must be near here!" ”

The hotel manager nodded hurriedly and was about to leave, but Shi Zhong said: "You don't need to find another hotel, just stay in my suite!" "Shi Zhong's suite has four rooms, which is just right for them.

So, Shi Zhong gave up his room, and as for himself, he made a phone call and asked Andrew to speak to the hotel manager in person, and gave Andrew's suite to Shi Zhong.

Speaking of which, this matter still depends on Andrew, Shi Zhong's room is the suite that Yang Tian and they booked, but Andrew is the behind-the-scenes boss of this hotel, so he is naturally arbitrary and arranges the suite to Shi Zhong.

On the elevator, Renault said with a look of surprise: "Brother Shi, why are you here?" Suddenly, "You're also here to participate in the Stranger Competition?" ”

"What Adeptus Contest?" Shi Zhong wondered.

"You don't know?" Renault was stunned and was about to speak, Yang Tian spoke, "I haven't thanked Mr. Shi for his help just now!" ”

"Captain Yang is polite, as a descendant of China, they should help each other!" Shi Zhongdao, and then, Shi Zhong greeted Yi Chen Tuoba, Yi Chen just smiled and nodded, but Tuoba burst out of his loud voice, "Haha, I meet an old friend in another country, I think we will find a place to drink him for a night!" ”
